Ingredients

3 cups confectioners’ sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened dark cocoa powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon espresso powder
3 large egg whites
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup Sea Salt Caramel Baking Truffles

Flaky sea salt for sprinkling

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add the confectioners' sugar, dark cocoa powder, salt, espresso powder, egg whites and vanilla to a mixer bowl. Mix on low speed to start gradually increasing the speed. The mixture will be very stiff. On low speed or by hand, add the truffles and pecans.
